Yeah yeah.

I've hit another would be roadblock with my TAS.

The very first camera. Ive found the best place to shoot it from.

Unfortunately, at this place I'm not close enough to the camera for the game to have fully loaded it- the shot goes right through it. And I spent a full two hours lining up the shot perfectly too...

Anyway, I'm wondering the farthest distance this camera has been hit by, that way, I can start from that far away, and move outwards, until I find the furthest distance away I can be and not have the bullet go through it.

So much for under 1:20...

Clemens' 128 is the furthest Ive ever seen.

Is there a way to get yaself another grenade, and prime it just after you throw for the comms, run around the otherside for the last cam (by this time the grenade should be primed) which can be got outside. Saves going inside the comms tower.

Just a thought.

Thanks Goose. Got it done now. Just to note that my first cam shot is very slightly unoptimized (about 1/6th of a second). This brings me to Gragz, however.

By deliberately having my first cam shot unoptimized, I'm able to manipulate a second Klobb guard right in my path on the way to the second cam. I now have two grenades. As you suggested Graham, I was planning to use it for the cam inside the satelitte, saving me having to enter the building at all. But, if I can find a way to put it through the trees and wipe out the third cam, I think that will save more time.

I'm feeling a lot better about this one now. Hopefully, I'll be done in a couple hours now, and the time will break 1:20 for sure. Thanks for the input.

What if you need 3 grenades....

I would still love to see a last camera shot through the window on the straf, could you possibly make a tas of that ending, from the previous work you've done so far? just use the last nade for a boost or something. :)

Done, thanks for the encouragement. No way I would've gotten it done so fast otherwise. Check the TAS topic for the link.

(someone can probably close this topic now)
